Another day, another underpaid dollar, are we right, fellow millennials? Born too early to be social media influencers and too late to own property, so now we're just stuck here uncomfortably in the middle while trying to keep everyone happy. No, no, don't worry about us, we'll be fine (we're not really fine). We're keeping it cool, in total chill mode (we are not chilling). As long as we have our daily 32-ounce iced coffee and a healthy helping of hilarious animal memes, we're good. Until the next day, that is.

But tomorrow is tomorrow's problem, so for today, we've got our coffee and some outrageously absurd animals below that pawfectly capture our millennial mental struggles. No one gets us like memes, and that's maybe because we invented them. Where would the world be without us? Let's not think about it; we can't add one more thing to the load of struggles we're carrying on our backs. Anyway, let's distract ourselves with some funny critters below, because could it really get any worse?

  • Do we know how to use Excel? No. But do we know how to use Google and Youtube to learn any necessary skill? Absolutely. We're fast learners - and the internet is the best teacher around.

  • We have needed new pants for like…years. But will we buy them for ourselves? No. It's too expensive. But will we buy our doggo a new toy because she “seems tired” of her old ones? Yes. Absolutely yes.
